I am (free) – A Poem

BY Elizabeth Grace Accordino

I see the colors of the leaves.

Red, yellow; golden like the shine of gold jewelry.
People, so many people.
I don’t know any more than that.
What a flower thinks, I don’t know.
What a person thinks, this, I have no clue.

For so long, I was a prisoner to my thoughts.
But, I don’t need to go there anymore.
I am chainless to the subconscious need to know everything.
I don’t have the answers.
I don’t need to pick what I want to perceive.
I perceive everything and nothing at all.

I’m free from searching for a pattern.
Pattern of what?
Of human behavior- the cause and effect.
Of my behavior- the reasons and the results.
They’re many patterns, or no patterns at all.
The only pattern is the one we wish to perceive.
I’ve decided to stop the pattern searching.

No longer do I need to justify my actions or the actions of others.
I am concrete on my beliefs and values- I don’t need anything else,
Thoughts other than the present- I don’t want them.
Thoughts about what another person may be thinking- I don’t need them.

All I need is the world to be pattern less,
And it has been, from way back to the dinosaurs.
I see roles and the suitable behaviors needed, nothing more, nothing less.
All I want is to be thankful, joyful, giving, happy and present.

Present in the hear and now,
Present without patterns,
Present without perception.
I am all patterns, I am all perception.
I am no pattern,
I am no perception.

I am,
I am,
I am
being.
I am human,
and I am being.
Nothing more, nothing less.

I am not,
I was, nor,
I will be, nor,
I wish to be, nor,
I won’t be.
I am, I am, I am.
Feels so right to say it.
I am.

I am not my thoughts.
I am not other people’s thoughts about me.
I am not the thoughts that I think people think of me.
I am not the thoughts I think that I’m a lesser or lower status than some other person.
Or even that I’m a higher or higher status than some other person.

I am the universe.
I am the Milky Way.
I am the stars.
I am the moon.
I am the sun.
I am a tree.
I am a golden leaf,
I am a sunflower,
I am connected,
Connected to you, and you to me.
I am,
And that is all, I am.

درباره کود ۲۰-۲۰-۲۰ یاد بگیرینhttps://honartabiat.ir/%da%a9%d9%88%d8%af-%d8%b3%d9%87-%d8%a8%db%8c%d8%b3%d8%aa/

Curiosity

Curiosity is our natural ability to look at things with fresh eyes. As we put aside opinions, concepts, projections, and expectations: we become available to experience this moment with the wonder and innocence of a child. 

Being curious brings us into a natural, open, and vast space to explore: “What is this?” “What am I experiencing?” “What am I feeling?”

4. Bring more awareness to what you are feeling. Focus on your felt experience and the qualities of the Inner Resource as you embody it. Resist the habit to analyze. Simply feel your body and emotions. 

5. Be open to your current experience, whatever it is, without judgment. Just ride the wave of the experience.

6. Remember that the quality of your attention and what you are feeling are more important than the content. Notice how your attention changes, waxing and waning, growing stronger, and sometimes getting distracted. No worries, simply bring your awareness back to the moment, take a deep breath, and focus on the Inner Resource.

7. Become familiar with the feelings and sensations of the Inner Resource you have chosen. Feel what is showing up in your physical body and your emotional body. Be curious to discover how this Inner Resource will support you in your life, to be who you really want to be, and feel how you really want to feel. It is through feeling the Inner Resource that you activate the frequency of it. 

Take 5 Deep Breaths

1. Feel your body.

2. Relax your shoulders.

3. Choose a word that makes you feel peaceful, such as om, peace, or love.

4. Inhale slowly while mentally saying the word you chose. Pause before starting the exhalation.

5. Exhale slowly while mentally saying 1 with the first breath. Exhale saying 2 with the second breath, up to 5 or more.

Feel Your Body

Relax your body, and just be aware of how your body feels. Be curious about what is happening in your body. Without changing anything, just notice what you are feeling. Notice where you are feeling things in your body. Make yourself more comfortable if you’d like. Take a deep breath, and feel the sensation of aliveness and the energy of your body.
